Lenovo's ThinkPad T430u ready for late August release

Lenovo hasn’t taken a breather this week, announcing yet another new product Wednesday in addition to giving the official word on the ThinkPad Tablet 2 coming out in October.

The ThinkPad T430u, an "ultraportable," mostly-business laptop equipped with Windows 7 will make its presence known at the end of the mont, though like the ThinkPad Tablet 2, no release exact release date was revealed.

Originally running for $849, the starting price has come down to $779.

This will get you an Ivy Bridge processor, a 14-inch screen with a resolution of 1366×768, up to 8GB of RAM and a choice between a standard HDD or a 128GB SSD.

The T430u’s also got a 1GB Nvidia GeForce GT 620M graphics unit and reportedly sports a seven hour battery life.

While affordable, the laptop weighs a slightly bulky 4.08 pounds and has ample breathing room at 0.83 inches thick.
